He wasn't otherwise he could have done something right from the start and prevented years of further abuse this girl is traumatised and always will be and her family played a part in it.
Being a older brother to sisters myself if I heard anything like this happened to my sisters I would be getting arrested and the abuser would be eating through a straw in a hospital bed
It's weird right. I have a brother, and he defended me when I was harassed by a boy at school. I talked to my old friend's little sister, and she said she was bullied in the past by a boy, and her brother did nothing.
My guess is the family tells everyone that because of how erratic her behavior was and that she would run away from home. He don't even know what he's saying nor does he make sense. And if she's seeking attention like he's trying to say it's obviously a cry for help because of all of the abuse she endured. This family failed her but hopefully they don't break her and she still succeeds
You can bet that there are multiple people in this family turning OTHER family members against her. Her brother was brainwashed into thinking she has no value and doesn’t need protecting.
@@Soul_Fedand one thing that crossed my mind is, what is so wrong with someone needing attention? I don’t get it. Isn’t that what kids NEED? Love and attention? Her erratic behavior is a result of people neglecting her and failing to protect her.
I love the part where she tells the story of how she runs him down in the store and tells him she was a woman now. A grown adult. And he's not gonna keep intimidating her! I'm so proud of this woman and her ability to face that worse kind of trauma and abuse. Faced him and ready to beat his ass. Damn right, babe, take your power back!
Family members who don’t believe in other family members about being rapped or molested as a child by a certain member are not real protectors . Basically her family failed her , especially her mother and brother . My god hearing this was just pissing me off so much . This is why it’s hard for children to talk to their families about them being molested nowadays , because they’re afraid others wouldn’t believe them . I hope that douchebag of a cousin got what he deserved . Also I wonder why the mom didn’t come to the show . And kudos to the father for believing and always sticking by her side .
That's only half true, there are crooked family members out there that will make up serious accusations against their own. However in this case case was true
@@charleneblack2792 that’s what I was thinking! Even if they thought she was lying at first he was literally caught in the act why did they still NOT believe her? I feel like they know its true but still doesn’t wanna do anything about it.
He believed her but allowed the abuse to continue for 6+ years. They allowed the same cousin to hang out and sleepover, for several years. Thats worse than not believing her.
@@tubester4567exactly and she’s too traumatized to even realize that he’s a poor excuse for a father also. The least he could have done was call CPS if he wasn’t gonna take custody of her
Poor girl. I felt her pain. People don’t want to believe a family member is capable of committing these type of crimes but we see it on this show all the time. Very sad! I’m glad she at least has this weight off her shoulders. A test to prove she wasn’t lying. A start to her healing process.
@@underscore55 it's sad bro families doesn't want to believe their kids or other family members because they just don't want to be bothered by it. If my child told me that I would fight for them and probably gonna fight but I'll take my child to the police station and tell them what happened
@@underscore55 I definitely agree & I agree with the comment you made outside of my comment. I understand idk the intimate details yk but to me it’s just like , how did this happen & continue to happen at the magnitude that it happened ?
I love how her father believed her from the start. It's really sad what happened to her and from the start her story sound truthful. Now I'm glad she finally exposed that nasty ass cousin for the monster that he was to her for all those years.
Her father allowed the abuse to continue for years. If he believed her why didnt he stop the cousin from coming around? Or go to police? Unless the father was separated from the mother and not living in the house, but even then, if he believed her, he should have demanded the cousin stop coming around. I really think sexual abuse is rampant in the black community, its so common its kind of normal.
@@tubester4567 babes it is every community. Most families have that uncle or cousin and I’ve seen many races of people say how their family covered it up.
@@tubester4567please do not just specify the black community. If you've been watching Steve for all of these years then this is one platform that shows you how black, Hispanic and white races have this disgusting issue. I'm sure others too but it's not broadcast. Sick individuals definitely aren't just bred in black communities and it's also very commonly over looked in all communities and families
This type shit has been going on in black families for so long. Uncles, aunts, cousins. Young kids not being protected, because their protectors don’t wanna ruffle any feathers in the family. So they just pretend not to believe it’s happening. Happy that this woman was able to get her truth out.
They didn’t believe her because the cousin was the “favorite” how unbelievable sad. Her family failed her miserably kudos to the father for being a REAL dad and her REAL family. I wish her healing and peace ❤.
I'm wondering if there was something else that happened to their "favorite" which is why he did unusual things and the reason they turned a blind eye to her
The whole family is WEIRD especially the brother. The cousin got caught before doing these things and now no one believes her when she decides to speak on her truth like what?

Righttt. That’s all I could think about when she said they kept letting him come around even after he was CAUGHT. Smdh , her family has probably failed other kids as well not protecting them from him
Yup. I sensed a lot of anxiety. You can tell she’s been abused bc she seems to be in protective mode at all times. Ready to stick up for herself cuz no one else did. 👊🏾
Wow my heart breaks for her. Even more when her brother said she could be lying to get attention. I never heard a brother say anything like that. Brothers are usually protector’s and wouldn’t let nothing or nobody hurt their sister. This family is weird and I’m glad she proved them all wrong!!! I hope she can get some type of Justice 🙏🏽
The brother didn't want to believe it it's not that he thought she was lying if that makes sense.. he's the only member besides the dad that showed up. She's the black sheep. To much passion and she was talking real fast... That's not practiced that's truth . All imma say is it's takes a victim to know a victim... She seems like a vibe tho lol the brother feels so bad
I wonder why the mother didn’t come to the show to say the least . Out of all of the children rape or molestation stories I’ve seen on the show , usually the mothers show up .
The fact he shook his head as no when she passed, still tells he still doesn't believe much because of him and her didn't have much of a brother sister bond after she told everyone their family member did this.
This is why so many people never speak out; the fear of not being believed. The signs are there, just overlooked. I finally told my mom just a few weeks ago what happened to me when I was a child, not in detail because I’m not ready to go there. My relatives were toxic too. They played a huge roll in why I didn’t speak up. I’m almost 30 with a family of my own and it still haunts me. I’m sooo overprotective of my babies. I just never want them to experience that type of pain. I pray she is able to heal and find comfort. ❤️
Her emotions were so raw I could feel them through the screen! We stand beside you and praying for you ❤🙏❤️ Please take this information to the police and your polygraph test results. To know the family didn’t believe her & exposed her to him 1 million times makes this whole situation more sick 😢
The brother is unbelievably pathetic. One can only imagine what the rest of the family are like, excluding the Father, who sounds very protective and supportive. Bless her heart, having to deal with both the trauma of rape and molestation, and a family who are emotionally abusive and neglectful.
Calling a six-year-old child “promiscuous” is grounds enough for any type of child protective service organization to get involved immediately, in my opinion. By law, a minor cannot give consent for sexual activity, therefore by extension, it is not possible for a minor to be exhibiting behaviour that suggests the potential for sexual engagement without some aspect of the situation breaking the law.
@@freelikeyve The disgusting audacity required to characterize a six-year-old as "promiscuous" goes beyond my brain's capacity for logic and reasoning. That is beyond red flags and goes directly to retina-shattering red fireworks, blaring alarm bells, and deafening air-raid sirens.
I had the same situation with a family member (former) for years.... this brought me back. Half of my family doesn't believe me of what happened, but the most supportive people (closest fam) did & called the police on that person. So, I understand how she feels and sometimes want to run away. She was brave enough to go on live tv about her situation.
There are people who are in the wrong when they dismiss an innocent person as a liar because when the truth comes, people will face disgrace, regrets, and guilt. Some are not even sorry, and attempt to make themselves look like they are the good guys but ended up making themselves the bad guys. They think don’t deserve to face the consequences, but they do. As for the innocent person, he or she deserves justice, peace, and happiness while the guilty person faces punishment.
here’s a woman, who i stand behind .her voice out loud , making an argument taken back what’s rightfully hers you go girl , i wished her family believed her alot of stories like this the family never believes this until they take a lie detector test is sad
So the father believed her and knew the guy got caught in the act, wanted to kick his @ss, but what did he do about it? She was still in that situation every weekend, acting out, running away, put in foster care.. where was that big talking dad of hers all those years? The time to have her back was when she was an innocent child.
Not to excuse his lack of action but I assume the mother’s side of the family was the one actively taking care of her, presumably they had more means to do so than the father did. This would give him a lot less leverage to intervene, especially when the entire maternal side of the family is circling the wagons around the cousin. I could imagine that perhaps he was incarcerated when she was put in foster care. I’m not sure it’s “big talking” just clearly his unconditional support meant a lot to her. It’s easy to criticize someone in hindsight for how they acted in a situation you have no real knowledge of but it seems pretty obvious to me that this is an environment where everyone is struggling hard. Again I’m not going to excuse his lack of action, in a perfect world he would have been able to trust the authorities enough to contact them regardless of his own circumstances.
I’m so thankful Steve for the closure you help get for the victims and exposing of the wicked that you do on your show she can be happy again because you brought her justice when no one else would even listen or call police to press charges this was a sad story and still is awful but it has a better ending now because of your show thanks to all of your crew too❤you guys do so much good God bless you
The dad brought me to tears the anger in his voice and the way he was on her side and never left ❤we need more fathers like him and her own family beside her dad didn’t believe her that’s sad I’m glad she has someone who loves and protects her
Steve face when she is describing what happened is priceless.. if only I could hear his thoughts.. this is sad though.. the fact that their family allowed this to happen is crazy..
Good job pop for standing next yo your daughter during everything she's been thru! Sis, you're an amazingly strong woman!!! Stay strong for them babies. They need you ♡. As for her "family" yall are pathetic, lowlife, pos for not believing her! The fact she had to go thru all of this to prove her innocence is PATHETIC!! Yall supposed to protect our girls not allow predators to steal their lives. You failed! Sis, take your life back! You're truly amazing ♡♡
Me my two sisters, two cousins, and also another cousin (his sister) were all abused by our cousin. My sister told a councilor at school and the police came to the house we all shared and questioned us, but nobody believed me and my siblings because our other cousins acted like it didn’t happen. It sucks when even your own blood doesn’t believe you even if it’s because of another family member.
My uncle was my abuser. And my mom put a stop to it. When it came out as an adult, my family took his side!! My brothers both hang out with this man til this day despite knowing what he did to me!!
Tykerra can Do Better without those called"family" ,No One Protected her😤Thank goodness she Stood her ground 👏And she's lucky to have her father having her back ❤️
I’m crying. my heart shatters for this beautiful woman. her reaction after the test, was pure hurt, rage & every other feeling she’s felt that’s she’s had to hold in for so many years. I truly hope she heals & gets better.
I believed her instantly because the same happened to me with one of my older brothers. He was sneaky and creepy. He also had anger issues. Im so sorry that no one believed her BUT her father, which I never had. I wish only the best for her and the wonderful future she will have
Yo Takira!? Never contact your "family" members who refused to believe you again. You're better than them. Who needs enemies with family like that? Your "mom" not only did not to keep you safe; but she facilitated the abuse. Hugs!
What a pathetic, POS, sorry excuse for a brother. Like her dad, he’s supposed to have her back, smh… and then what he says at 10:10 is very telling. Why would you even say that? Ughhh, that irritated me. I pray that Tykera gets all the healing she needs.
Of the three women I know that to have happened to, only one of them hasn't been traumatised (and she's somewhat hypersexual). I hope you find your way to having a quieter mind.
Girl, stay away from those people! Don't talk to or associate with ANY of them except for your father. They allowed it to happen to you because it didn't matter.
Her whole damn family is NASTY, except for her daddy! But, one thing I’m wondering is if he believed her from the jump, why wasn’t he repeatedly calling the police on this guy for 7 straight years and getting an investigation going?
I missed the last half of the show because we had a weather alert that lasted 35 minutes!! I was yelling at the tv, & my daughter said but mom its about a tornado! I said if it gets us it gets us, I wanted to watch steve!!! Thank you for showing it, & no, no tornado hit!😆😆😆
It makes me so mad that the only person on her side was her father yet the cousin was still able to SA her for several years because of her terrible family members defending him 😒
It’s happened in my family as well to my siblings and cousins by another male cousin and nobody believed us and still to this day we have to constantly be around him at reunions etc and they expect us to act like nothing happened I feel for you
She has an amazing father ! I always dreamed of having a real father like that . I’m praying for her , this story is soooooo sad !!!!!! I’m so glad she stood up for herself ‼️
The way she explains her truth is incredible to me. She is so strong when she tells it. Her dad is THE REAL MVP, he reminds me of my dad no matter what he’s always going to be there. Atleast she had someone there supporting her ❤️ bless her
Oh dear God ,she is a true survivor 🙌,it's time for her to heal...she needs all the support she can get, lets keep her in our prayers 🙏🕊🦋❣💐✌👽# healingbodyandsoul 🙏
I haven’t heard the result yet but I can literally feel her pain in her voice I really hope she is telling the truth and get some justice and her brother is not right
I feel so bad for what this woman had to go through as a child. I'm so happy she was able to get her story out and confirm that she was always telling the truth. Shame on that family for not believing her. She was a 6 year old child! No child is promiscuous! I'm thankful that the father believed her and I'm thankful for Steve for helping her get the truth out! My family would've believed me and that cousin would've been murdered!
i’m listening to her fathers voicemail in tears ..all i ever wanted was for my father to talk to me like that after it came out that his best friend was molesting me for years ..starting at 12 ..there was nothing ..no one even believes me ! i’m 32 now and i think ill be writing into the show Steve !
Her brother was a joke this is the reason why ppl don’t say nothing and it’s wrong . This girl is strong pls speak up no matter what , the pain I felt immediately so sad .
Her brother should’ve stayed his unsupportive ass at home … he just came up there to basically hear the truth first hand and thought she was lying naw he not up he sit down unless it a female he gotta fight for you smh
Sometimes there are family members who won't believe you because there are members who would make up stories that they were sexual assaulted, raped, etc against their own family for petty reasons.
Ten minutes into this she said 4:35 her dad was for her 100%. So why was this weirdo allowed to follow you EVERYWHERE you went??? Why did you even end up in foster care??????
This poor woman. Only her father was there for her. I hope that she gets the justice that she deserves.

@@toosense she said he sent the kid away and wanted to beat him,but the mother stopped him.

He didn't stick up for his sister like she wanted but he made sure to tell Steve that he is a big fan smh. Priorities all messed up.
Shame on the Mother , the brother and her family
Wow my heart breaks for her. Even more when her brother said she could be lying to get attention. I never heard a brother say anything like that. Brothers are usually protector’s and wouldn’t let nothing or nobody hurt their sister. This family is weird and I’m glad she proved them all wrong!!! I hope she can get some type of Justice 🙏🏽
She was sexualized at a young age. As was I. Prayers for her
The brother didn't want to believe it it's not that he thought she was lying if that makes sense.. he's the only member besides the dad that showed up. She's the black sheep. To much passion and she was talking real fast... That's not practiced that's truth . All imma say is it's takes a victim to know a victim... She seems like a vibe tho lol the brother feels so bad
I wonder why the mother didn’t come to the show to say the least . Out of all of the children rape or molestation stories I’ve seen on the show , usually the mothers show up .
And he shook his head "No" when she passed her results.
The fact he shook his head as no when she passed, still tells he still doesn't believe much because of him and her didn't have much of a brother sister bond after she told everyone their family member did this.
He should feel bad. Sorry excuse for a brother
@@kaelincampbell1930 you look like a man 💯💯💯💯😂
This is why so many people never speak out; the fear of not being believed. The signs are there, just overlooked. I finally told my mom just a few weeks ago what happened to me when I was a child, not in detail because I’m not ready to go there. My relatives were toxic too. They played a huge roll in why I didn’t speak up. I’m almost 30 with a family of my own and it still haunts me. I’m sooo overprotective of my babies. I just never want them to experience that type of pain. I pray she is able to heal and find comfort. ❤️
Her emotions were so raw I could feel them through the screen! We stand beside you and praying for you ❤🙏❤️ Please take this information to the police and your polygraph test results. To know the family didn’t believe her & exposed her to him 1 million times makes this whole situation more sick 😢
The brother is unbelievably pathetic. One can only imagine what the rest of the family are like, excluding the Father, who sounds very protective and supportive. Bless her heart, having to deal with both the trauma of rape and molestation, and a family who are emotionally abusive and neglectful.
Calling a six-year-old child “promiscuous” is grounds enough for any type of child protective service organization to get involved immediately, in my opinion. By law, a minor cannot give consent for sexual activity, therefore by extension, it is not possible for a minor to be exhibiting behaviour that suggests the potential for sexual engagement without some aspect of the situation breaking the law.
This is good info right here
@@freelikeyve The disgusting audacity required to characterize a six-year-old as "promiscuous" goes beyond my brain's capacity for logic and reasoning. That is beyond red flags and goes directly to retina-shattering red fireworks, blaring alarm bells, and deafening air-raid sirens.
I had the same situation with a family member (former) for years.... this brought me back. Half of my family doesn't believe me of what happened, but the most supportive people (closest fam) did & called the police on that person. So, I understand how she feels and sometimes want to run away. She was brave enough to go on live tv about her situation.
Sending hugs to you right now. I am so sorry.
There are people who are in the wrong when they dismiss an innocent person as a liar because when the truth comes, people will face disgrace, regrets, and guilt.
Some are not even sorry, and attempt to make themselves look like they are the good guys but ended up making themselves the bad guys. They think don’t deserve to face the consequences, but they do.
As for the innocent person, he or she deserves justice, peace, and happiness while the guilty person faces punishment.
here’s a woman, who i stand behind .her voice out loud , making an argument taken back what’s rightfully hers you go girl , i wished her family believed her alot of stories like this the family never believes this until they take a lie detector test is sad
I just wanted to hug her after her results. I knew that she was not lying. I cried. SHE NEEDS JUSTICE! SHAME ON HER FAMILY!
So the father believed her and knew the guy got caught in the act, wanted to kick his @ss, but what did he do about it? She was still in that situation every weekend, acting out, running away, put in foster care.. where was that big talking dad of hers all those years? The time to have her back was when she was an innocent child.
Yes I agree! Why didn't he protect her?
Not to excuse his lack of action but I assume the mother’s side of the family was the one actively taking care of her, presumably they had more means to do so than the father did. This would give him a lot less leverage to intervene, especially when the entire maternal side of the family is circling the wagons around the cousin. I could imagine that perhaps he was incarcerated when she was put in foster care. I’m not sure it’s “big talking” just clearly his unconditional support meant a lot to her. It’s easy to criticize someone in hindsight for how they acted in a situation you have no real knowledge of but it seems pretty obvious to me that this is an environment where everyone is struggling hard. Again I’m not going to excuse his lack of action, in a perfect world he would have been able to trust the authorities enough to contact them regardless of his own circumstances.
@@blazaybla22 What means do you need to call the police? Even IF he was incarcerated he had options.
This is the day that Tykera truly stopped being a victim. She became a Survivor.
This guy isn't the only one with problems in that family. This whole shit was totally preventable.
I’m so thankful Steve for the closure you help get for the victims and exposing of the wicked that you do on your show she can be happy again because you brought her justice when no one else would even listen or call police to press charges this was a sad story and still is awful but it has a better ending now because of your show thanks to all of your crew too❤you guys do so much good God bless you
The dad brought me to tears the anger in his voice and the way he was on her side and never left ❤we need more fathers like him and her own family beside her dad didn’t believe her that’s sad I’m glad she has someone who loves and protects her
Steve face when she is describing what happened is priceless.. if only I could hear his thoughts.. this is sad though.. the fact that their family allowed this to happen is crazy..
Good job pop for standing next yo your daughter during everything she's been thru! Sis, you're an amazingly strong woman!!! Stay strong for them babies. They need you ♡. As for her "family" yall are pathetic, lowlife, pos for not believing her! The fact she had to go thru all of this to prove her innocence is PATHETIC!! Yall supposed to protect our girls not allow predators to steal their lives. You failed! Sis, take your life back! You're truly amazing ♡♡
Me my two sisters, two cousins, and also another cousin (his sister) were all abused by our cousin. My sister told a councilor at school and the police came to the house we all shared and questioned us, but nobody believed me and my siblings because our other cousins acted like it didn’t happen. It sucks when even your own blood doesn’t believe you even if it’s because of another family member.
Abusers are more likely to be someone in your own family
It sucks??? what are you talking about
@@MONEYAINTATHANG100 did you even read their comment? Obviously you didn’t 🙄
My uncle was my abuser. And my mom put a stop to it. When it came out as an adult, my family took his side!! My brothers both hang out with this man til this day despite knowing what he did to me!!
I FELT BAD FOR THE GIRL..................
I'm so glad she getting the closure she needs !
I'm In Tears For Her
WHAT A STRONG AND BEAUTY-FUL WOMAN. IM SO SORRY THAT HAPPENED TO HER. GOD BLESS AND PROTECT HER.
Tykerra can Do Better without those called"family" ,No One Protected her😤Thank goodness she Stood her ground 👏And she's lucky to have her father having her back ❤️
I’m crying. my heart shatters for this beautiful woman. her reaction after the test, was pure hurt, rage & every other feeling she’s felt that’s she’s had to hold in for so many years. I truly hope she heals & gets better.
The brother shook his head. I’m happy for her that she is getting her voice back
Her entire family let her down. How sad and disgusting 🥺 shame on them.
The dad says she kept it in, but she told them and he was caught doing it?!?! They all failed her big time! That weirdo should be in jail!!!
I believed her instantly because the same happened to me with one of my older brothers. He was sneaky and creepy. He also had anger issues. Im so sorry that no one believed her BUT her father, which I never had. I wish only the best for her and the wonderful future she will have
I feel bad for this girl.
You and me both .
Yo Takira!? Never contact your "family" members who refused to believe you again. You're better than them. Who needs enemies with family like that? Your "mom" not only did not to keep you safe; but she facilitated the abuse.
Hugs!
What a pathetic, POS, sorry excuse for a brother. Like her dad, he’s supposed to have her back, smh… and then what he says at 10:10 is very telling. Why would you even say that? Ughhh, that irritated me. I pray that Tykera gets all the healing she needs.
My heart goes out to her….so sad that her family didn’t believe her. Shame on all of them! I hope she gets counseling to heal and gets justice❤️
The fact that he shook his head after the results.
he’s a weak ass individual
I went through something very traumatic and it freaking sucks
I'm sorry you went through something so traumatic
@@987plo thank you
Of the three women I know that to have happened to, only one of them hasn't been traumatised (and she's somewhat hypersexual). I hope you find your way to having a quieter mind.
@@timothydraper3687 thank you
@@timothydraper3687 thank you so much
I love how she is walking in her power after the trauma fr . you can tell it changed her but she has a powerful soul!
Girl, stay away from those people! Don't talk to or associate with ANY of them except for your father. They allowed it to happen to you because it didn't matter.
Her father believed her yet he did nothing about it.....not even when her mother put her in foster care...
I would have told the people in foster care so they can call the police
Her whole damn family is NASTY, except for her daddy! But, one thing I’m wondering is if he believed her from the jump, why wasn’t he repeatedly calling the police on this guy for 7 straight years and getting an investigation going?
I missed the last half of the show because we had a weather alert that lasted 35 minutes!! I was yelling at the tv, & my daughter said but mom its about a tornado! I said if it gets us it gets us, I wanted to watch steve!!! Thank you for showing it, & no, no tornado hit!😆😆😆
This girls family ohes her an apology a big one
🥺The family failed her..including her father! They allowed that monster around after being caught in the act. SMH.
It makes me so mad that the only person on her side was her father yet the cousin was still able to SA her for several years because of her terrible family members defending him 😒
I dealt with the same with two male cousins and no one did anything. And even today I am told that it was years ago and I should just get over it
It’s happened in my family as well to my siblings and cousins by another male cousin and nobody believed us and still to this day we have to constantly be around him at reunions etc and they expect us to act like nothing happened I feel for you
@@mercedesbenz6243 I feel for you as well. No child should have to go through sexual abuse
She has an amazing father ! I always dreamed of having a real father like that . I’m praying for her , this story is soooooo sad !!!!!! I’m so glad she stood up for herself ‼️
The way she explains her truth is incredible to me. She is so strong when she tells it. Her dad is THE REAL MVP, he reminds me of my dad no matter what he’s always going to be there. Atleast she had someone there supporting her ❤️ bless her
When I Say That Whole Family , Apart From My Daddy Wouldn't Have To Worry About Me Ever Again .
We have some things in common and I'm proud of you for speaking your truth 🫂
What a pos brother! I feel so bad for her , I’m praying that she heals 😢😢
Oh dear God ,she is a true survivor 🙌,it's time for her to heal...she needs all the support she can get, lets keep her in our prayers 🙏🕊🦋❣💐✌👽# healingbodyandsoul 🙏
I haven’t heard the result yet but I can literally feel her pain in her voice I really hope she is telling the truth and get some justice and her brother is not right
I can feel her pain all the way here in Australia, I just want to give this girl the biggest hug. 🧑🍼
Always believe the victim
Thank you Steve thank you for everything that you do for everyone we LOVE YOU ‼️🙏🏽💯
I feel so bad for what this woman had to go through as a child. I'm so happy she was able to get her story out and confirm that she was always telling the truth. Shame on that family for not believing her. She was a 6 year old child! No child is promiscuous! I'm thankful that the father believed her and I'm thankful for Steve for helping her get the truth out! My family would've believed me and that cousin would've been murdered!
i’m listening to her fathers voicemail in tears ..all i ever wanted was for my father to talk to me like that after it came out that his best friend was molesting me for years ..starting at 12 ..there was nothing ..no one even believes me ! i’m 32 now and i think ill be writing into the show Steve !
Her brother was a joke this is the reason why ppl don’t say nothing and it’s wrong . This girl is strong pls speak up no matter what , the pain I felt immediately so sad .
Great father for standing behind his daughter 🫶🏾
Her brother should’ve stayed his unsupportive ass at home … he just came up there to basically hear the truth first hand and thought she was lying naw he not up he sit down unless it a female he gotta fight for you smh
She said his glasses fog up 😭😭 lmao that’s crazy Ngl I feel for her tho
L
Straight up Poindexter
Sometimes there are family members who won't believe you because there are members who would make up stories that they were sexual assaulted, raped, etc against their own family for petty reasons.
true but people will just not believe them regardless of any family relationship.
only black families don't believe their family members
Ten minutes into this she said 4:35 her dad was for her 100%. So why was this weirdo allowed to follow you EVERYWHERE you went??? Why did you even end up in foster care??????
Poor women , having no one believe her, but her dad! Lock this man tf up 😡🤮🤮
Such a beautiful young lady. It’s a shame nobody would believe her.
